Evan looked around. Edelstein was so...... buildingy. There were almost no buildings back in Henesys and only one house back at the farm. Those that did existed were made of wood or mushrooms and sometimes stone. But they weren't squished together like this and none of them were half as tall as that city hall.
"Mir. Lets land there" She said "This is were we're supposed to meet Claudine right? She has something she wants to give us in the super secret base."
"Yeah Master, what did she want anyways?" Mir asked.
Evan shrugged. "I dunno. Might've been something to do with Mr Phantom stealing something of hers..." She remembered Phantom mentioning breaking into Edelstein to get medical supplies. As always Mercedes had chewed him out for it.
"Lets ask someone, Master"
"Great idea!"
Evan and Mir went up to a girl with large pony tails. "Hey! Do you know where the super secret resistance base is? My drag- I mean Lizard and I are trying to find it!"

the girl turns towards who ever is addressing her looking her up and down "you do realize you are not supposed to speak of <that place> out in the open right?", said the girl shifting her gaze to the lizard "funny that look like a dragon to me" but if you are trying to find <the secret place> you might try the headmaster.", said the girl pointing towards a man with a white beard and a medium size hat. "now if you will excuse me I must find something........." if only I knew what I were looking for.... with that said the girl wanders off aimlessly
maybe she might know something about me.... the girl wanders back hoping to find the girl with the lizard................"here did she go? I hope I am in he right spot....." said the girl as she brings her right hand up to check her gloves and pull them tighter "I guess I can just wander till I find her again...." she sighs heavily and continues wandering in hopes of finding the girl again

Evan had been off as soon as the word headmaster had left the girl's mouth.
The headmaster looked at her. "Are you a new student?"
"Me? No I'm not going to school I'm a er.... student from another school who's come to visit." she said, remembering phantom talk about how codes work in this city.
"Alright." The headmaster replied "The School entrance is over there" he pointed to a sewer.
"Thanks sir!" Evan called as she entered. In there was more metal, and Claudine stood there. And sure enough. She gave Evan a lecture about stealing Resistance supplies. Of course, she couldn't find any of the other heroes but Evan left a big impression wherever she went.
"I know... I'll tell Mister Phantom." She said.
Then she went back out.
"Hey Mir whatdaya wanna do?" She asked her dragon.
"Lets go make friend!" Mir said. "And then we can get stronger!"
"Great idea!" Evan beamed. "Hey lets go find that girl from before. We didn't even get her name."

"UGH I'M NEVER GOING TO FIND HER!" the girl said angrily slumping against a wall in sight of the <school entrance> "if only I knew what I was looking for........." she said sadly checking to make sure no one was looking before she put her necklace back under her armor i don't know what that symbol mean no one will tell me......not even lady syl the girl sits there brooding over her lost chance at information
"some dualblade i turned out to be i can't even remember where i came from....." said the girl shaking her head trying to clear her mind "I JUST NEED TO FOCUS! i can figure this out!" said the girl not noticing how much she is yelling "er maybe i should check sleepywood again but............i don't like those flying boats! they creep me out....." said the girl deicinding she had sat down long enough "i need to find that girl with the lizard! maybe someone in town has seen her..." wanders around town aimlessly again asking everyone she see's if they saw a girl with a flying lizard

One of the people Thorn had asked gave her an exact description.
"A girl with a giant lizard?" The little girl had said "Oh! You mean Dragon Master Evan! She's the coolest!"
The girl's eyes sparkled with admiration "I wanna be just like her when I grow up! She's even one of the legendary heroes. You know the ones who fought the Black Mage hundreds of years ago."
~CJWrites~
"Hmm... where is she." Evan mused. She was, again, cruising over the town on top of her dragon.
"Hey! Over there." Mir said. Jerking his head downwards
"Huh? Where." A dragon's nod didn't exactly have a specific direction "You're right there she is." The duo landed and Evan hopped off. Then stopped.
"Hey.... Mir don't you think she looks like someone we know?" Evan asked. Dead serious this time.
"Hmm.... maybe..... I can't pinpoint it master" Mir said.
"That hair. That silver, gravity defying hair" Evan said "It can't be.... She looks like a younger version of orchid"

"one of the............she is evan........the evan..." mutters the girl shocked as she leans against the wall not sure why the name 'hero evan' rings somewhere deep in her mind "thank you little girl here take this" said the girl handing her a small purse of meso's "you will need it before I will" said the girl turning around to walk away "wait..........is that the girl from before?" said the girl wandering slowly towards the girl with the llizard "and if what that little girl told me is true then that lizard isn't a lizard at all....it IS dragon"
will she even know anything about me? or a way to find out my past? no one has been able to help me but I get the feeling she might be able to "hey! you with the lizard don't let that lizard get seen the <roaches> might suspect something" says the girl pointing discreetly towards an alley walking towards it hoping she will follow

Evan followed the girl to the alleyway.
"Roaches.... what did that mean again?" Mir asked quietly.
"I think it meant the baddies" Evan said
"Hey! What's your name?" Evan asked the girl. She didin't want to mention how much she looked like.... well.... a certain former Black Wings Leader. Not to mention one of the Black Mage's commanders. "I'm Evan."
She didn't know what else to say. She had used the code used by the resistance. That can't mean she's all bad right? Or could it be that she knew who she was and wanted to take Evan out.
She tightly gripped her wand and her shoulders tensed. Preparing for a fight. Just in case. Mir also growled. They drew closer to each other.
Squaring off against each other in this lonely alleyway. What if she was really strong? Evan was barely level 140! She gripped the card in her pocket tight. The card that would call the Lumiere down and bring them to safety.

"my name is Thorn you can relax evan.", says Thorn pulling out the emblem of lady Syl holding it in her left hand letting her right arm dangle lazily "I assume you would know what this emblem means?", why is she so tense? does she think I am going to try to attack her or something? "and also.............do you.......know anything about restoring lost memory?", Thorn asks sheepishly avoiding eye contact.
"why aren't you using code like you should? do you want the <roaches> to catch on and <dance> with you?", asked Thorn still holding up the emblem gripping the front end of her chain tightly incase she needs to do a snap throw "and also.............how did you find me again? I loked all over the place and couldn't find a trace of you or you're lizard. and......did you make sure to cover you're tracks form <that place> after you left?" asked Thorn looking in her peripherals to check if anyone followed her and evan

"Well.... I closed the door." Evan said, scratching the back of her head. "But don't worry. The black wings wont mess with me anymore. Not after what happened a while ago"
She relaxed a bit. "Well... I got a friend with... what did she call it? Amnesia? But she got her memories back little by little. Some of it she remembers herself. The other parts she looks for in a book." Evan blinked "Maybe I could ask Mister Phantom to help you. Maybe he'll find out who you are with his large info network. But its weird isn't it.... how you've had amnesia for so long"
She didn't recognize the symbol, no. At least. Not at first. Then she looked closer. "Oi. Isn't that the black wings symbol?" She asked. She raised her wand "So you are with them"
She straitened up and pointed her wand at Thorn. Mir also got into a battle stance.

"you dare raise you're wand to one of Lady Syl's DualBlades", growls Thorn pulling her right arm up letting the chain slip back into it's holster in her sleeve, as she reachs down to grab her dagger and katara. "foolish dragon master you have one more chance to stand down I don't want to cause a scene here if you really think I am a black wing then go ask the little girl what I gave her for helping me", the look Thorn is giving evan is one of completely devoid of emotion her red eye seeming to shimmer in her anger.
"and as for you little lizard I have taken down bigger then you do you really think you stand a chance against a blade master?", asked Thorn as an exact copy of her steps out of the shadows and falls in behind her "please evan put you're wand down I don't want to fight if I don't have to.....", said thorn a slight tone of sadness creeps in her voice "all I want is a way to remember who I am and where I came from.......all I remember is that I was found by lady syl at a young age but before that is all blank.....". Wait......I have an idea "you think I am a black wing right? then would a black wing do this?" drops her weapons and stands with her hands out in sight her mirror image mimicking her every action. "if you really think I am a Black wing then fry me.........what do I have to look forward to? I will never remember who I am anyways!" growled thorn through clenched teeth holding back her anger

Mir growled at being called a "little lizard". "Master we should attack." He said.
"Wait" Evan held up her hand. What she said made sense. Once thinking about it, why would a black wing not flaunt her you know..... black wingedness. And she was a Dual Blade. Evan didn't know much about dual blades other than that they are pretty secretive and an alternative for normal Thieves. She didn't really know their purpose or if they were good or bad but they had showed up at the Maple Alliance meeting so.... They couldn't be with the black wings could they.
"Don't say that!" Evan said. "You must surly have something to look forward too. Its just your past. Just because you don't know the past doesn't mean you can't build for the future. Work hard, become stronger and find something that makes you happy!"
She nuzzled Mir.
"Its what Mir and I do. We help people and look for adventure. That's what made us strong because we fight together, as one for a greater goal." Evan smiled but the message under that smile was clear. Defeating us won't be as easy as you think

Thorn smiles lightly "i'm glad you are finally seeing reason", said Thorn bending down to retrieve her dagger and katara "but if you are still feeling brave I wouldn't mind a dual", after saying that she looks evan in the eyes dead serious "you said you had a friend who lost her memory what all did she remember when she woke up?", asked Thorn not even moving till she gets an answer. maybe her friend was the same as me maybe I just need to try what her friend did but........what more can I become other then a blade master...
"so are we done having the urge to kill the dual blade?", asked Thorn leaning against a the wall her mirror image came from the mage vanishing slowly. she looks at the symbol lady Syl had given her and sure enough it looked at first glance like the black wing symbol but on closer inspection it was clearly an owl. "does you're dragon bite if anyone tries to pet him?" asked Thorn eying the dragon down he would be a worthy fight never fought a dragon like that before I wonder if it is higher then level 148......

"I don't think Aran remembered anything when she woke up. But then soon after she started remembering" Evan looked a little sad "Now she remembers almost everything."
Mir growled. Evan frowned. "He's just mad because you called him weak." Evan said. "Usually he's friendly. Comon Mir don't be like that."
Mir loosened up but still glared at Thorn "I still don't trust her."
Evan sweat dropped "Well.... this is the best its gonna get I guess."
Evan thought. "An owl represents wisdom... But I dunno where that symbol is from.... There's a lot of scolarly people in Orbis right? Maybe we should check over there." She got on Mir and held out her hand to Thorn "You coming?"
"No way I'm letting her ride me." Mir said.
"Fine if you're gonna be that way." Evan rolled her eyes. "We'll just get a ride from Mister Phantom."
She used the card in her pocket as the Lumiere decended. "Maybe you can even ask Aran how she got her memory back. But watch out for Sir Luminous.... he can be pretty scary at times... Mister Phantom you should also stay away from but Ms. Mercedes is ok. She can be a bit stuck up though."
The Lumiere decended. "Lets go!" Evan said

Thorn giggled lightly at the dragons reaction and the description of luminous. "can he be any scarier then i am now? how many people do you know that has lived after crossing a DualBlade?", said Thorn following Evan onto the ship the descended well...........alteast this one is big enough i can avoid looking out of the ship......i hope...." so all five heroes are on this ship right now? with mercedes being one of the oldest right?" asked thorn already formulating where she will start her questioning if what i heard is true mercedes should be one of the oldest heroes maybe she knows something of me m"my offer for a dual still stands if you want. i would especialy love to take on you're dragon maybe knock his attitude down a peg or two" Thorn said smiling at the dragon "you said his name is Mir right? would Mir happen to know anything about restoring memories or who i am?" glances pleadingly at the dragon
"W-WOW!", exclaims Thorn standing on the deck of the ship "what is this ship and who owns it? i have got to get me one of these", Thorn smiles mischeviasly running around staring at all the technology but keeping a farther then respectable distance from it all. she suddenly snaps her fingers remembering something, "is there a room that you use to train in? i was heading out to do some DualBlade drills when we ran into each other. you can even watch if you want you would get to see how a DualBlade works in combat scenarios!",asks thorn still following evan hoping she isn't getting annoyed by all the questions while checking her armor to make sure it's presentable to be in the ssame room as all five heroes.

Mir suppressed the urge to spit a face full of fire into the young girl's face. Instead he shook his large head. "I dunno anything about you."
"You don't look that scary!" Evan said "In fact you're pretty cute!" She smiled at Thorn, oblivious to the implications of what she had said.
Then Phantom arrived. "The owner would be me." He flipped his hair. And handed Thorn a rose he had pulled seemingly out of thin air. "There are multiple training rooms for different levels."
"Hey you want to meet the heroes right? Maybe they know something" Evan asked. "Lets have our match after or we could do drills together and see how we work together. Sir Phantom. Set course for Orbis. Where are Miss Mercedes, Aran and Mister Luminous?"
"They're in the conference room." Phantom replied. "I'll tell Renault about Orbis"
"Lets go to the meeting room then, Thorn." Evan said excitedly. She grabbed her hand and led her to said room, where 3 heroes were sitting at a desk, which was covered with all sorts of battle plans and research books.
Phantom walked in shortly.
"Oh look. The thief is here" Luminous sneered.
